I just finished his latest “47th Samurai” and it was excellent but this is my all time favorite Stephen Hunter novel.

It is just a novel that leaves you wondering if we are going to see the end of Earl Swagger.

I had fun trying to figure out who was who in the novel.
The only one I had trouble with, was Charlie?
It was a toss up between Charles Askin senior or junior?
I also thought it might of been Skeeter Skelton!
I am satisfied of the other five.
Also is Ed’s grandaughter have any basis in reality?
I like all of the novels Stephen Hunter has written so far.
I would like to read more spinoffs of earlier novels.
Point of impact was the ONE that made me start being a Stephan Hunter
fan and collector!

Having read every novel Mr. Hunter has written, I have to say Pale Horse is one of the best–and NONE of them are weak. Earl and Bob Lee have to be two of the best characters I have ever found in this type of fiction. Their depth, developed through all the books, makes them real. I know there has to be an end–sometime. I’m not looking forward to it.

For anyone interested in another good book about a shooter, try Unintended Consequences by John Ross. It is fiction but you will get a pretty good history lesson too.
